Ed and I are going to be working towards creating an opening sequence which resembles existing thrillers'. Due to the short spae of time we have in completing this task, we must first note down thoroughly the research we must complete. An example of this list is provided below. As well as this, some extra research which we intend to carry out will ensure that our opening sequence is as authentic as possible and to avoid the mistake of accidentally producing an opening sequence for a horror film or a trailer, like some other students have fallen into the trap of.
The research which we plan to carry out includes:
- Analyse past students' work
- Blogs
- Opening sequences
- How to shoot specific shots through our story-board in:
- Weather conditions.
- Specific lighting.
- Times of day.
- Audience research:
- Include questions about the narrative.
- Aesthetic (so colour schemes and fonts).
- The music or sound, what makes a cliche and what makes it thrilling.
- What kind of thrillers are they interested in.
- Antagonist/ protagonist preferences.
- Appropriate places to film:
- We plan to go over our story-board in detail to determine how many places we need to visit. Over the weekend, we'll also visit places which we've found to see how appropriate it is for the purpous.
- Get permission if necessary.
